Most Unsurprising Headline of the Day
“EU President Wants to see a new Euro Tax”
One has to be fair though, one cannot accuse the EU of not being inclusive. There was apparently a good attendance at the meeting of the
Bilderberg Group where M. Van Rompuy chose to announce his initiative.

Labour Win Glasgow North East
It’s hardly even a headline. Labour have held the seat for 74 years, and in long periods of government during that time have transformed it into one of the most desirable areas in Britain but it remains one of the poorest constituencies in the country*. An absolute shocker for the BNP who were edged into [...]

Nick Griffin
I’m a bit behind with this posting as there has been so much written and said since his appearance on Question Time the other night. However I’m going to add my twopence worth.
